The fronts you unscrew. That is you are screwing the spacer pieces up through the spring. Screw them all the way up and then drive it to see how low it is. Mine are screwed up all the way and it lowered it about 1/2 to 3/4 inch.

Make sure you take the load off of those spacers becaause it will tear the drive slot up if you don't.
